She provides lipstick, her new square metal com pact for loose powder, a comb, a large mirror, and pockets for cígarettes, change, and a latchkey; $18 and $20.

It contains a lipstick, his new vanity, and a thin metal case that holds ten ciga- rettes (satin pockets in bags not only squdge your cigarettes but are n1essy) ; $15 and $ 20.
